**Disclaimer, I find her very funny but if sarcasm is not your thing, you might not find her so funny lol Nevertheless, great, great blog**
Edited to add this amazing quote!
"Most important fact here: Ketones are the result, not the cause, of using fat for fuel. Ketones do not drive the process of “burning fat”; they are the byproduct of it."

Lol believe me her posts saved me a lot of confusion especially navigating FB groups <headaches> im just hoping this will help somebody avoid confusion1 -
I love that post! It brought me my favorite keto graphic to date: "If your body is already HF, then all you really need is the LC."5

I do think she brings out two important details:
1. Ppl shouldn't load on fat for fat's sake
2. This diet (any diet) has a danger of obsessive types... um... rigidly obsessing.3
